You need a bunch of money as a down payment to show them you aren't some random junkie off the street that buys 10 sprint phones and never pays for them

My daughter is a loan officer and deals with these questions every day. Talk to a loan officer from a bank or mortgage company, etc.

OP, we need more info about you. We know you want a home. Help us determine what home is best for you. I’m not saying what you qualify for because banks will always qualify you for more house than you can actually afford unless you have shitty credit.
What is your monthly net income? How much cash do you have for a down payment? That will help determine how much house you can actually afford.
I’ve bought and sold property a few times. Within the last couple months, I bought a lot (land) with a couple acres, got my current home under contract to sell it, signed a lease on a rental while we build a new house on said lot that we purchased, and are about to sign a contract with a builder to build it. None of it is all that hard, you just have to stay on top of things.
Find a local realtor you can trust and they will answer all kinds of questions for free. They want you to use them when you go to buy/sell, so they’re really in the relationship business and will be helpful.

I bring home $800 every 2 weeks and I can put $23 down tonight but I also get paid this week.
I have $10k in collections but probably still have ok credit. I did commit fraud but I don't take responsibility for my actions.

I'm terrified of buying a house. I don't trust governments, what if I buy a house somewhere and they just dump 30,000 "refugees" in the neighbourhood and let them loot shit?
Or I have noisy neighours?
Maybe I'd buy a rural property.
